The treatment of many thousands of cases
of those chronic weaknesses and distressing
ailments peculiar to females, at the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute Buffalo, N. Y,
has afforded a vast experience in nicely
adapting and thoroughly testing remedies
for the cure of woman's peculiar maladies.
DIR. Piercess FavOrite Prescription
is the outgrowth, or result, of this great
and valuable experience. Thousands of
testimonials, received from patients and
from physicians who have tested it in the
more aggravated and obstinate cases which
had baffied their skill, prove it to be the
most wonderful remedy ever devised for
the relief and cure of suffering women. 1t
is not recommended as " cure-all," but
as most perfect Specific for woman's

Heirs OF THE KINGDOM.

The surprising faith of the Roman officer
was the occasion of the declaration of JESUS,
that all nations would enjoy the blessings of
the Kingdom of heaven and the natural de-
scendants of the patriarchs would miss them.
This is declared by the figure of a feast-an
evening banquet, representing many from
all nations reclining at the table with the IA
theirs of the Hebrew race, and their posteri-
ty weeping and crashing their teeth (sym-
bols of grief and anger in the darkness
without. The same Providential fact is il
Illustrated in the parable of the Marriage
Feast and Supper Matthew xvii. IA; Luke
xiv. 1924. The Jews based their expecta-
ton of the blessings of the Messiah's reign
upon their descent from Abraham and the
patriarchs. But the true children of Abra-
ham and heirs of the promise made to the
patriarchs, and interpreted by the prophets
were not those born of the flesh but of the
Spirit. Abraham was the father of the
faithful" All of every nation who mani
tested genuine faith in COP, and His right
eousness, were true children of the Kingdom
who would inherit the blessings promised to
the Fathers of Israel. The reign of the Mes
siah was to be kingdom of faith and right
eousness including all nations. Though pro-
claimed by their prophets, the Jews rejected
and refused to accept such an idea of their
Messiah and his reign, and the blessings OF
Christianity spread among the nations of the
earth. The rejection of the Jews from the
Messiah's reign is not fnal. When "the full
ness of the Gen:iles be come in, all Israel
shall be saved" (Romans xi. 26). ALI the
nations, kingdoms and families of earth will
yet enjoy the blessings of Christianity-the
reign of GoD through CHRIST over mankind
To lie down with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
in the Kingdom of Heaven, doth not signify
to enjoy everlasting happinessin heaven with
them, but only to become the SONS OF Aora-
ham through faith and SO to be blessed
with faithful Abraham; through faith IN
CHRIST to be the seed of Abraham, and heirs
according to the promise (Gal. Ill. 1-z9);-
the promise made to Abraham (Gan. XII. -,
renewed to Isaac Gen. xvi. A. and confirmed
to Jacob (Gen. xviii. 14l.--Dr. Whttby.
The crashing of teeth denotes the vexation
and wrath of the spiritually proud jews,
when they should find themselves outside the
kingdom, while the Gentiles they had 80 de-
spised were within. The parable of the rich
man and Lazarus (Luke XVII pictures the
two classes, and exhibits the wide contrast.
DIR. Hanson.
1t is not perfectly fair to infer from this
strong and unqualified mode of expression,
that the unexpected faith in him showed by
the Roman moved him deeply-made such
an impressian upon him that there suddenly
opened before his mind, quick to catch the
revelations OF life the great future of truth,
and that in his imagination, kindled, inspired
by the emotion of the moment, he beheld
multitudes from the remotest quarters OF the
earth fiocking to the great festival of Uni
versal Humanity.-Dr. F0TneSs.

MARVELLOUS FAITH,

The confident faith which the Centurion
manifested in the disposition and power of
JESUS to cure his Servant" was matter Of
establishment, and JESUS declared to those
who accompanied him, that he had not found
so great faith even among the Israelites as
was exhibited by this Gentle. The Israelites
were trained in the expectation of a NANTES
tation of Divine power in their behalf. 1t
had been strikingly manifested in the careers
of their greatest prophets, Moses and Elijah.
They were anxiously expecting greater than
Moses and Elijah to arise. But their faith
in his appearance was not such moral
power as was exemplifed in this Roman.
Faith is more than expectation, more than
intellectual belief; it is q great moral force
impelling to action, and confiding in the
eternal verities that may not be compre-
hended. The Centurion was manifestly a
man of faith that made him the humble,
generous, tolerant and worthy man that he
appears to have been. Having heard of JE-
sUs he confded in him in the extremity of his
need,
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1887-09-24
The CENTuRIoN.

1t appears that when JESUS had completed
his instructions to his disciples given in the
retirement of the mountain and recorded by
Matthew in the Sermon on the Mount, he
returned to his home in Capernaum. A
Centurion, an off GER, probably, connected
with the Roman garrison stationed there, be-
sought him to heal his favorite or valued
servant, who was lying at the point of death,
in great pain ("grievously tormented'). The
disease with which he was afflicted is called
"palsy." It was probably cramp, which ac-
cording to Jaahn and others, was included in
the term palsy; or it may have been tetanus
or lock-jaw, as anciently all diseases that
affected the voluntary action of the muscles
were included in the term translated "palsy."
According to Luke, the Centurion made
his request through the Jewish elders. He
was man of good reputation, who had suf-
ficient interest in the religion of the Jews to
build for them tabernacle of worship.
JESUS was willing to go and heal the sick
man. On the way he was met by the Centu-
rion's friends whom he had sent to request
that JESUS should only command that his
servant should be healed, as he was unworthy
to have him enter his house, deemed himself
unworthy also to make his request in person
(Luke viii. 2-7) The Centurion had doubt
less heard of the recovery of the courtier's
son at the command of or proclamation of
JESUS when at Cana (John iv. 46-5D. To
illustrate his faith in JESUS power to heal his
slave by a word, he said, "For I also am a
man appointed under authority, having SOL
diers under me, and say to this one go,
and he goes; and to another Come and he
comes, and to my slave DO this and he
does it." So he believed JESUS had authority
over diseases, or the influences that produced
them. The ancients attributed the diseases,
the natural causes of which they did not un-
derstand, directly to the Deity, or to super
natural agencies, and considered them
scourges or plaques. The diseases that af-
fected the mind we're attributed to the pos
session of demons, or evil spirits; those that
affected the body to the malignant influence
of the atmosphere or heavenly bodies. The
Centurion may have believed that JESUS had
such authority over these influences and
Spirits, as he himself exercised over his SOL
diers and slaves.

The CURE.

1t is idle to speculate as to the immediate
cause of the reported cure. JESUS said to
the man who exhibited such remarkable
faith, $50, let it come to pass for you, as you
have believed" His faith was great, worthy
of great blessing. 1t is declared that " the
servant was healed in that hour" but there
appears to be some doubt as to the genuine
ness of the passage. 1t is possible and cred
ible that JESUS. being divinely endowed,
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1887-09-24

What we call miracles are not miracles to
the Deity, and therefore the evangelists call
them in CHRIST simply dundmesis, his fdcuI-
ties; and John calls them erna, works, only,
the natural products of his faculties; yet not
without purpose. They we're also senleid,
signs, tokens, indicating that something was
done, which man was thereby required to ex-
anime and observe; and living as the Jews
did under preparatory dispsnsation, they
were signs that the fullness of time had come,
and the final dispensation being ushered in.

reported to have been wrought by JESUS was
